    Just a comic, but there is something to this. I think it comes down to what you see as an exception and what you see as the rule. Carol might be the “good exception” for them, while “ThE mEXiCaNS!,” in general, are evil and eat pets or whatever. Maybe Carol was even the “I’m not a racist, my friend is mexican” friend.

    I even have people in my life (not that I chose to) who are immigrants themselves, came to my country for economic prosperity, and now hate new immigrants.

      “The law holds that it is better that 10 guilty persons escape, than that 1 innocent suffer."

      - William Blackstone, 1769

      Apparently, they didn’t get the memo.

      This comic is about Republicans not breaking their ranks over minor issues like economy or immigration. Trump can destroy the country but they will still vote Republican because voting Democrat is not an option for them.
